Why should Members merge their SSNIT and NIA numbers?
- Members will experience quite a bit of convenience as they will have to keep only one card to transact business with SSNIT. The Ghana Card will now be your SSNIT card.
- It will also result in some savings as the cost of printing the SSNIT Biometric cards will be eliminated.
- It is a legal requirement. Regulation 7of the National Identity Register Regulations, 2012, L.I. 2111, requires the use of the Ghana Card for “transactions pertaining to individuals in respect of pension” and “transactions that have social security implications”
- It is also a directive from the National Pensions Regulatory Authority (NPRA)
Why can’t SSNIT and NIA merge my SSNIT number with my NIA Number without my involvement?
SSNIT requires both your SSNIT and NIA numbers for the merger process. So if you gave out your SSNIT number to the NIA registration team, you will not have to do the merger because it will be done for you automatically.
What happens if a Member fails to merge their SSNIT number and NIA numbers?
A Member who fails to complete the merger process by December 2021 will not be able to access SSNIT services.
Can I give my NIA number to my employer to use in paying my contributions?
Yes, you must provide your NIA number (Personal ID Number on your Ghana Card) if you have gone through the merger process. Merged SSNIT and NIA numbers will be used concurrently during the transition period.
As a voluntary contributor, can I pay my contributions with my NIA number?
Yes, you can use your NIA number (Personal ID Number on the Ghana Card) if it has been merged with your SSNIT number. Merged SSNIT and NIA numbers will be used concurrently during the transition period.
